Abstract
The LD showed an increase in all parameters in both CL modalities being significant for MV in the non-dominant eye (pâ¯<â¯0.030, for all LD parameters). For the MF, there was also a significant increase in LDI (pâ¯=â¯0.016) and in BFCrad (pâ¯=â¯0.022) in the non-dominant eye. After 15 days of MF lens wear, there was a significant decrease in all LD parameters (pâ¯<â¯0.002) in the dominant eye. Binocularly, a significant improvement from 1 to 15 days was observed for LDI (pâ¯=â¯0.009) and BFCrad (pâ¯=â¯0.0013) with MF. The QoV questionnaire showed no significant changes with neither CL. Conclusions. Adaptation to light disturbances induced by MF CL is more effective compared to MV. Practitioners will have greater success if they prepare their patients for the adaptation required as their vision will get better and have less of an issue with light disturbance.
